The nonempty finite sample space is S={-9, -8, -7, -6}, with event family F=𝒫(S). In the displayed order of S, the nonnegative normalized weights are [0/(13), 4/(13), 5/(13), 4/(13)], summing exactly to one. A={-9}, B={-7, -6}, and P(B)>0. Compute P(A|B) exactly as a reduced fraction with positive denominator, without assuming equiprobability.
G001 — The nonempty finite sample space is S={-9, -8, -7, -6}, with event family F=𝒫(S). In the displayed order of S, the nonnegative normalized weights are [0/(13), 4/(13), 5/(13), 4/(13)], summing exactly to one. A={-9}, B={-7, -6}, and P(B)>0. Compute P(A|B) exactly as a reduced fraction with positive denominator, without assuming equiprobability.Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
Before
S={-9, -8, -7, -6};A={-9};B={-7, -6};F=𝒫(S)After
events are declared subsets;conditioning needs P(B)>0
Conditions: none
𝒫(S) is the full event powerset,not a probability value.A nonempty event may have probability0.When checking B's eligibility,do not invent an unspecified A.
Rule: conditional_model_domain · Uses: G001
Before
A={-9};B={-7, -6}After
A∩B=∅
Conditions: none
The intersection keeps outcomes in both events;neither a union nor independence is assumed.
Rule: explicit_event_intersection · Uses: G001, S001
Before
total weight numerator := sum(0, 4, 5, 4)
After
total weight numerator = 13
Conditions: none
Nonnegative weights must sum to the common positive denominator to give total probability1.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S002
Before
[[-9, 0], [-8, 4], [-7, 5], [-6, 4]]
After
weights sum to 13;normalization verified
Conditions: none
Weights align with the original S order;do not sort S while leaving weights in their old positions.
Rule: weight_alignment_and_normalization · Uses: G001, S003
Before
B weight numerator := sum(5, 4)
After
B weight numerator = 9
Conditions: none
Sum aligned weights over the event;zero-mass outcomes do not become positive mass.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S004
Before
B probability mass := div(9, 13)
After
B probability mass = 9/13
Conditions: none
Divide by the common positive denominator to obtain exact probability.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S005
Before
A∩B weight numerator := sum()
After
A∩B weight numerator = 0
Conditions: none
Sum aligned weights over the event;zero-mass outcomes do not become positive mass.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S006
Before
A∩B probability mass := div(0, 13)
After
A∩B probability mass = 0
Conditions: none
Divide by the common positive denominator to obtain exact probability.
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S007
Before
P(A|B) := div(0, 9/13)
After
P(A|B) = 0
Conditions: none
By definition divide the intersection probability by positive P(B);do not assume it equals P(A)P(B).
Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S008
Before
P(A∩B)=0;P(B)=9/13>0
After
P(A|B)=0
Conditions: none
Use the ratio only with the checked positive conditioning mass;a zero-mass intersection can validly yield conditional value0.
Rule: conditional_ratio_positive_guard · Uses: G001, S009
